SZENTLELEKI VOROS DORIS A.K.A. CLEOPATRA

SADLY ON THE 25TH OF SEPTEMBER 2007, OUR BELOVED CLEOPATRA PASSED ON AT THE VERY YOUNG AGE OF 3 YEARS. SHE CAUGHT A VERY NASTY DISEASE CALLED LEPTOSPIROSIS WHICH SAVAGELY ATTACKED HER KIDNEYS RENDERING THEM USELESS. WE MADE THE DECISION TO LET HER GO, IT WAS A ROUGH DECISION TO MAKE, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, IT WAS SOMETHING THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE. WE COULDN'T STAND TO SEE OUR BEAUTIFUL CLEOPATRA IN THE CONDITION THAT LEPTO PUT HER IN. SHE WAS CONTINUALLY LOSING WEIGHT, AT THE END SHE WAS UNDER 80LBS, AND LOOKING VERY TIRED. IT WAS IN HER BEST INTEREST THAT HER SUFFERING BE ENDED. SHE BROUGHT GREAT JOY TO THE LIVES OF EVERYONE WHO KNEW HER(PLEASE BEAR WITH ME AS AS I WRITE THIS AS IT WAS JUST 2 DAYS AGO THAT SHE WAS SENT TO LIVE WITH GOD) SHE WAS THE BEST DOGUE THAT ANYONE COULD HAVE ASKED FOR, SHE WAS A JOY TO SHOW AND SHE WAS A NATURAL IN THE RING, I THINK SHE WAS BORN TO SHOW AND HER PURPOSE HERE WAS TO BRING JOY TO THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE ON EARTH. WE HAVE ONE LITTER OUT OF HER, AND SHE SHINES THROUGH IN HER PUPS, I'M SURE THEIR NEW OWNERS WILL ENJOY THEM AS MUCH AS WE HAVE ENJOYED OUR LOVELY CLEOPATRA. SHE WAS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR KENNEL AND THE ONE THAT STARTED US IN SHOWING(WHICH SHE DID VERY WELL AT, WINNING LOTS OF AWARDS CONSIDERING SHE DIDN'T ENTER HER FIRST SHOW UNTIL THE AGE OF 2). SHE TRAVELLED WITH US TO NORTH CAROLINA AND NASHVILLE LAST YEAR WHERE SHE MET A NEW FRIEND RICKY THE MONKEY AND GOT HER PICTURE TAKEN WITH HIM. SHE IS THE ONLY DOG THAT WOULD HAVE ALLOWED A MONKEY(WHICH SHE NEVER SEEN BEFORE THAT TIME) PULL ON HER LIPS AND PUT HIS FACE RIGHT AGAINST HERS LIKE HE WAS GIVING HER A KISS AND SHE DIDN'T MIND IT AT ALL, SHE DIDN'T EVEN FLINCH...TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I THINK SHE SECRETLY LIKE IT. WE ARE VERY PROUD TO HAVE OWNED CLEO, AND WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO HAVE HER BACK, BUT SHE IS IN A BETTER PLACE NOW WHERE SHE IS BEING WELL TAKEN CARE OF(AND PROBABLY HAVING A GREAT TIME PARTYING WITH HER DAD ASSO AND HER BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER ISIS...REST IN PEACE ALL OF YOU!!) WE USED TO TAKE HER INTO THE NURSING HOME IN LONDON ONTARIO, AND SHE LOVED IT JUST AS MUCH AS THE ELDERLY PEOPLE DID, AND PROBABLY AS MUCH AS WE DID TOO. IT WAS AWESOME TO SEE THE SMILES THAT SHE BROUGHT TO THE FACES OF SO MANY OF THE ELDERLY PERSONS IN THE NURSING HOME, SOME OF WHICH HADN'T HAD ANY VISITORS FOR A LONG TIME, IT REALLY MADE ME FEEL GOOD, LIKE I WAS DOING SOMETHING GOOD....FOR ONCE...HAHA. SHE WOULD HAVE MADE AN EXCELLENT THERAPY DOGUE. SHE WAS THE MOST GENTLE, LOVING, AND FRIENDLY DOGUE, AND WE WILL MISS HER DEARLY. WE LOVE YOU MISS CLEO!! REST IN PEACE.

Szentleleki Voros Doris(Cleopatra) is our foundation female. Her sire is Asso Tatra Bordo, and her dam is Szentleleki Voros Molly. Born on August 4th 2004, she has one of the greatest temperments I have ever seen. If you meet her you will fall in love with her. We didn't have to train her to walk on a leash, she was just a natural. She is O.F.A. certified on her Hips, Thyroid, Patella, Shoulders, and cardiac. She has an outstanding pedigree which includes: Belmondo the Red Powerpack, Arthur of Clearcut, Aria Ahapes, Flash Von Nordniedersachsen, Bam-Bam un de Mes Amis, Minnie del Pardo, Butcher the Red Powerpack, Red Cerberos Athena, and of course Asso Tatra Bordo, and many more. She is listed on the Blockheads pedigree database where you can see pictures of many of her ancestors(but you have to click on the names in her pedigree to see them)(really cool, I encourage you to check it out, you can trace a pedigree back REALLY far!!)
